My Personal Experience
So I enrolled at the Vinyasa Yoga Ashram last month for the 200 hour course. It was also to take a break from my mundane life and put a stop to the monotony. But what seemed like a distant dream materialised and flourished so beautifully at a place I can now call my “home”. Vinyasa Yoga Ashram is not only a place to learn Yoga from but you will be provided with in-depth knowledge about all subjects right from anatomy, philosophy, pranayam, meditation, alignment to learning the famous ashtanga and vinyasa. The rigorous routine of the course will ensure that you can change your lifestyle in a month if you really want. It brought about a 360 degree change in mine. The best part about this course are the Gurus who are so incredibly deep into their subjects and will be able to address each of your doubts with patience and support. I would especially like to mention some names because they have in a short span made a considerable change in my thinking pattern and living patterns. Bhavesh Sir is the master of Philosophy- the most famous in all of Rishikesh for being so full of wisdom and knowledge of his subject. Parveen Maam - She’s the sweetest person with the warmest of hearts ! We did some life changing meditation classes and I have been practicing a few of them which have made a lot of difference for me. Pradeep Sir - He’s the fittest and undoubtedly the youngest who has the undebatable knowledge of Anatomy, Ashtanga, pranayam, and also Alignment. You could also say he’s an all rounder. Ashish Sir - He’s the one who has helped us improve our postures and taught us technically how to help others improve their postures. This is something that I can apply when I teach. Rajesh Sir - Not only he is the best Vinyasa teacher in the whole of Rishikesh but also he broke down how Vinyasa flow is designed and made us teach to improve our teaching skills when we face the outside world. We did some amazing classes and this gave us a lot of confidence. Apart from this the rooms that they give are clean, water is always available to drink and in the washrooms. The ashram kitchen team is absolutely great and I would like to thank them for taking care of us like children and cooking amazing meals for us and ensuring that we get our nutrition on time always. Special thanks to Yashpal Ji for giving me this opportunity to learn from the best teachers in Rishikesh and being so attentive to the needs of students always. I personally never felt that I was away from my family. And I never wanted to leave the ashram. On this note I would love to recommend Vinyasa Yoga Ashram to everyone who wants to embark on their Yoga journey in Rishikesh. You will not find a better place to start it. I personally cannot wait to come back for the 300 hr teacher training course. With Love Romikka ❤️
